SEATCUPRA.NET National Meet 2026 (Discussion thread)

[Jimbobcook]

Afternoon all,

It's been a while since we had a forum meetup, children, cars and everything else in between has got in the way from my end but we're slowly getting back into it.

We've been in touch with our Forum sponsor CUPRA Oldham (part of the Swansway Motor Group) and they've managed to get a location for a meet, the location is just west of Stoke on Trent at the Nantwich Town Football Club, they have kindly agreed that we can use their car park for the meet-up whilst also opening their outdoor bar and diner so there would be food and drink available for attendees.

We will have our merchandise with us and will be offering prizes and freebies.

Confirmed date: Sunday 23rd August between 10.30 and 2.30.
Confirmed Location: Nantwich Town Football Club, The Swansway Stadium, Waterlode, Nantwich CW5 5BS
Numbers: Up to 50 vehicles
Show car: Limited run Formentor VZ5

Please confirm your attendance in this thread​

Cheers

Simon

Very interested subject to not being on holiday.

I would also add that back in the day when we did these things for those with longer journeys we would all end up staying in the same hotel so the party (well talking about cars anyway) carried on.

Don't make meets like that anymore haha no flags, no making sure we've got enough space for 50 cars haha just a nice catch up with friends that's got a nice drive.

 

[Syphon]

No reason people who have a distance to travel couldn't meet up the night before at a local hotel.

 

[Nathan penney]

I’d be well up for this as long as we’re not away.

Afternoon all,

The club also mentioned they could also potentially have a family fun day on the same day

Date is still being discussed *

It sounds like there could be a good opportunity to align both events and potentially create a larger combined day out for the Car people and their families.

What are everyone's thoughts on the Location, joining in with another event (family fun day) and potentially having some classic tiny plastic trophies for the cleanest, dirtiest, first to arrive, Last to arrive and Favourite car of the day.

Thoughts and feedback welcome

Please select your opinion in the poll (Only open for 14 days) and also post below so we can keep people updated / see feedback etc.

Cheers

Simon

Tiny plastic trophies??
Where have the bespoke models gone?
Guessing the joys of family life got in the way?

They're with people so if people have them still we can dish them out again, until then, we have 5* China made plastic trophies lol

It’s been a long time since we had a meet. I’m 50/50 given the distance, but will certainly keep an eye on developments here.
Still got one of the trophies!!

50% is better than nothing, hope you can make it.

It sounds brilliant & I'd really love to go, but I think the 3 hour drive there might just be too much for me. (I would have to come in the Ibiza too ).
Hope it all goes well though & more peeps sign up

I know I would by no means be the furthest away, but if you were sporting those original trophies, I would have to get there, even trailer BadBoy if I had to
P.S I'm with you on the music & driving, ultimate contentment

 

[tracktoy]

Just to add this even is not limited to any model, all seats are welcome

 

[bete noir]

I am up for this. 230 miles in an uncomfortable Ibiza with no music. Lovely.

 

[James_R]

Any idea on dates at all?

 

[Nathan penney]

Back in 2019 I was presented with this one at Trax.
I handed it back at the next event, don’t know who won it then.

Found these old pictures of the great things that Simon built.

 

[BadBoy03]

Does any one still have pics from these original meets? I'd love to see some snaps of the foundation years.
This YouTube makes me smile, so many MK1 Leon's
